What User likes about The Bell:
absolutely stunning place. very friendly staff that they feel welcome, like the locals. beautifully decorated and eating is amazing. all fresh home cooking, presentation is excellent. we'll go a few more times. we went on Wednesday night and it was busy, so I would recommend keeping a table as there are not so many inside. on a summer they enjoy the outdoor garden is a nice place to dinate. very recommend a visit. al...

Visited with friends and second time of eating here within the month….was not impressed and wonder if there is a different chef during the day…? Menu options are not always available…lamb kebab meat chewy , chips dry, tzatziki very thick, hunters chicken with seasonal veg were served with stir fry veg….which was not specified…The lady who served us was apologetic and comments passed to kitchen but no discount offered...

The Bell offers a charming atmosphere with a friendly staff and a lovely outdoor garden, making it a delightful local pub. Though some guests have praised the quality of food and welcoming service, others reported inconsistencies, such as availability of menu items and lengthy waits. While fresh, well-cooked meals were highlighted, some dishes arrived cold or lacked proper presentation. Despite these issues, the pub’s inviting interior and commitment to customer service stand out. For a blend of experiences—both positive and critical—The Bell remains a popular choice worth considering for your next visit.
